Sandwiches built by
people who actually

Our Story

A deli that takes its
bread seriously.

M Z Food Store & Deli sits on South MacDill Avenue because this neighborhood deserves a place that treats a simple sandwich like something worth getting right. We source real ingredients — not the processed shortcuts most places hide behind.

Every sandwich is built to order. Every slice of meat is cut fresh. If we wouldn't serve it to our own table, it doesn't make it onto yours. That's not a slogan — it's just how we do things.

Words from folks who
actually eat here

"I've been coming to M Z for years. The pastrami sandwich is hands down the best in Tampa — meat is always fresh, bread is always right. I tell everyone who asks."

"Stopped in for coffee and ended up staying for a sandwich. The staff was incredibly friendly and the food was genuinely good — not fast-food good, actually good."
